Remove previous versions of the add-on and restart Blender before installing.

Getting Started

Shot Manager is an add-on for Blender in order assist in the organisation of complex files containing multiple shots, view layers and cameras. Shot Manager should be installed like any .zip add-on. 

The main interface is found in the Properties panel -> Output tab.

Its a good idea to drag the panel upward and save the start up file.

• Enable. The first check box will toggle the affect of Shot Manager on you scene. Uncheck if you need to turn off its influence, particularly if rendering alternative frame ranges or View Layers.

To activate a shot simply select it in the list. Double click the name to re-name.

Existing Customers, Highest Value pricing

Customers who wish to upgrade to SM Pro 2.0 who have purchased an older Shot Manager Pro version will only need to pay the difference between what they paid for SM 0.7 and the SM 2.0 price. For example, if they purchased SM 0.7 for $30 and SM 2.0 costs $40, they will only need to pay $10 to upgrade.

This is the only update cost .  All other updates will be free as usual. This it is a major upgrade and re-factor that has taken over 10 intensive months to develop.
